◆ PASSPORT PHOTO MAKER
Passport photos get rejected for millimetres. The picture looks fine, but the head is a few millimetres too tall, or the file was printed without a resolution tag and came back the wrong size.
Upload an ordinary photo. This tool finds your face, measures the distance from your chin to the top of your hair, and scales it to the range your document actually requires. You get two files back: a digital photo sized for online applications, and a 4x6 print sheet with as many copies as fit, cut lines included.
Head height is measured from your chin to the top of your hair, and a face detector alone does not see hair. This tool uses a full silhouette mask, so volume in your hair — or a headscarf — is measured, not guessed at.
Not a preset that looks close. US passport photos are 2x2 inches with the head between 25 and 35 mm. Turkish biometric photos are 50x60 mm. Schengen is 35x45 mm. Each is stored with the source it came from and the date it was checked.
Shadows behind you are one of the most common reasons a photo gets sent back.
A photo printed without it comes out the wrong physical size no matter how correct the pixels were. This is the most common failure that nobody sees coming.
At the exact pixel size and resolution the application form expects.
With the maximum number of copies that fit, spaced with cut lines. Take it to any photo shop or print it at home.
Of what was verified — head height, tilt, resolution, background — and anything worth a second look.
United States — passport and visa, 2 x 2 in · Turkey — passport, ID card and driving licence, 50 x 60 mm · Schengen visa — 35 x 45 mm
More document types are added as their official specifications are verified. Each size on this list is stored with a link to the source it came from — we would rather support fewer documents accurately than many by guesswork.
This tool sets the geometry — photo size, head height, position and background — to the published specification for the document you choose. The final decision always belongs to the office processing your application. Anyone promising a guarantee is promising something they do not control.
Usually yes, if it is sharp, evenly lit and taken straight on. Hold the camera at eye level and stand a couple of steps back — a phone held at arm's length distorts facial proportions, and that distortion is visible in the result.
Headscarves worn for religious reasons are accepted by most authorities as long as the full face is visible. Glasses are increasingly not accepted for passports in many countries, and where they are, there must be no reflection on the lenses. Check the rules for your specific document.
Yes, HEIC files are supported alongside JPEG and PNG.
One hour, then it is deleted automatically. There is also a delete button if you want it gone the moment you have downloaded your files. Photos are never used for anything other than producing your result.
Upload an ordinary photo, pick your document, and download both the digital file and the print sheet.
